An eigensystem realization algorithm for modal parameter identification and model reduction
Jer-Nan Juang,Richard S. Pappa +1 more
TL;DR: A new approach is introduced in conjunction with the singular value decomposition technique to derive the basic formulation of minimum order realization which is an extended version of the Ho-Kalman algorithm.
Effects of Noise on Modal Parameters Identified by the Eigensystem Realization Algorithm
Jer-Nan Juang,Richard S. Pappa +1 more
TL;DR: The basic concept of the Eigensystem Realization Algorithm for modal parameter identification and model reduction is extended to minimize the distortion of the identified parameters caused by noise.
